Page 39 - HUDSON CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT

The Board may temporarily deny admittance to any student who has been suspended from the schools of another Ohio district, if the
student’s suspension period set by the other district has not expired. The suspended student shall first be offered an opportunity for a
hearing before the Superintendent.

When a student is expelled from this District, the Superintendent shall send written notice to any college in which the expelled student is
enrolled under Postsecondary Enrollment Options at the time the expulsion is imposed. The written notice shall indicate the date the
expulsion is scheduled to expire and that the Board has adopted a provision in Policy 2271 under R.C. 3313.613 to deny high school
credit for postsecondary courses taken during an expulsion.

If the expulsion is extended, the Superintendent shall notify the college of the extension.

The Superintendent may require a student to perform community service in conjunction with or in place of a suspension or expulsion.
The Board may adopt guidelines to permit the Superintendent to impose a community service requirement beyond the end of the
school year in lieu of applying the expulsion into the following school year.

A copy of this policy is to be posted in a central location in each school and made available to students and parents upon request. Key
provisions of the policy should also be included in the parent-student handbook.

SEARCH AND SEIZURE

Board Policy: 5771

The Board of Education recognizes that the privacy of students or their belongings may not be violated by unreasonable search and
seizure and directs that no student be searched without reasonable suspicion or in an unreasonable manner.

The Board acknowledges the need for in-school storage of student possessions and shall provide storage places, including desks and
lockers, for that purpose. Such spaces remain the property of the Board and, in accordance with law, may be the subject of random
search. Where locks are provided for such places, students may lock them against incursion by other students, but in no such places
shall students have such an expectation of privacy as to prevent examination by a school official. The Board directs the school
principals to conduct a routine inspection at least annually of all such storage places.

School authorities are charged with the responsibility of safeguarding the safety and well-being of the students in their care. In the
discharge of that responsibility, school authorities may search the person or property, including vehicles, of a student, with or without
the student's consent, whenever they reasonably suspect that the search is required to discover evidence of a violation of law or of
school rules. The extent of the search will be governed by the seriousness of the alleged infraction and the student's age.

This authorization to search shall also apply to all situations in which the student is under the jurisdiction of the Board.

Administrators are permitted to conduct a random search of any student's locker and its contents at any time, providing proper notice
has been posted in the locker areas of each building.

Search of a student's person or intimate personal belongings shall be conducted by a person of the student's gender, in the presence of
another staff member of the same gender, and only in exceptional circumstances when the health or safety of the student or of others is
immediately threatened.

Administrators are authorized to arrange for the use of a breath-test instrument for the purpose of determining if a student has
consumed an alcoholic beverage. It is not necessary for the test to determine blood-alcohol level, since the Board has established a
zero tolerance for alcohol use.

The Board also authorizes the use of canines, trained in detecting the presence of drugs or devices, when the Superintendent has
reasonable suspicion that illegal drugs or devices may be present in a school. This means of detection shall be used only to determine
the presence of drugs in locker areas and other places on school property where such substances could be concealed. Canine
detection must be conducted in collaboration with law enforcement authorities or with organizations certified in canine detection and is
not to be used to search individual students unless a warrant has been obtained prior to the search.

Except as provided below, a request for the search of a student or a student's possessions will be directed to the principal who shall
seek the freely offered consent of the student to the inspection. Whenever possible, a search will be conducted by the principal in the
presence of the student and a staff member other than the principal. A search prompted by the reasonable belief that health and safety
are immediately threatened will be conducted with as much speed and dispatch as may be required to protect persons and property.

The principal shall be responsible for the prompt recording in writing of each student search, including the reasons for the search;
information received that established the need for the search and the name of informant, if any; the persons present when the search
